When you go to war, both sides lose totally.
Yoko Ono

A lot of things have been thrown at me in life, and I've got through it all without a rule book, taking it one day at a time.
Yoko Ono
Image
Art is like breathing for me. If I don't do it, I start to choke.
Yoko Ono
Image
I thought art was a verb, rather than a noun.
Yoko Ono
Image
You're filled with so much life. Is there any reason why all of us are not full of life?
Yoko Ono
Image
To have a relationship that is pure and passionate and beautiful - I think people are scared of having that now. Especially guys.

The 1960s were about releasing ourselves from conventional society and freeing ourselves.
Yoko Ono

I trust in my inspiration, really, and that's difficult because sometimes you would rather be technical. And once you empty your mind, empty your brain, it's really incredible. I'm very caring about things that dash into my brain, and I make sure I don't just clog it.
Yoko Ono
Image
I think I'm an observer in a way. And my life was not so - well, my life was bad too - but it's just that I had the sense to cope with it. But it's probably not that easy to cope if you're in a society where you get killed when your husband dies.
Yoko Ono
Image
Art for me is like breathing. When I stop breathing, what happens?
Yoko Ono
Image
The only instrument I can play is piano. Whenever I make songs at home, I play the piano and make them on the piano.
Yoko Ono
Image
Give peace a chance and let's hope that one day we will all live in peace.
Yoko Ono
Image
Confusion has become a state of mind, more of less we're trained to be confused. Quite simply, the people in power are keeping us down, keeping us docile and keeping us consuming with this confusion. It's a cultural confusion and it is deliberate.
Yoko Ono
Image
We're all water from different rivers, That's why it's so easy to meet, We're all water in this vast, vast ocean, Someday we'll evaporate together.
Yoko Ono

It's a waste of time to think that if you colored a painting red what might have happened if you painted it black.
